Here's one of the 25 songs from the Leap's Learning Band. Let's begin with the song everyone knows -- it's the ABC song! A, B, C, D, E, F, G -- listen to this and sing with me!

The Alphabet Song is a song that is designed to teach children the alphabet. It shares the same commonalities and tune as do Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star and Baa, Baa, Black Sheep.

The song was first copyrighted in 1835 by the Boston-based music publisher Charles Bradlee, and given the title "The A.B.C., a German air with variations for the flute with an easy accompaniment for the piano forte". The musical arrangement was attributed to Louis Le Maire (sometimes Lemaire), an 18th-century composer. This was "Entered according to act of Congress, in the year 1835, by C. Bradlee, in the clerk's office of the District Court of Massachusetts", according to the Newberry Library, which also says, "The theme is that used by Mozart for his piano variations, Ah, vous dirai-je, maman." This tune is the same as the tune for "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" and similar to that of "Baa, Baa, Black Sheep".

Due to the speed at which 'L, M, N, O, P' is spoken it is a common misconception among children still learning the alphabet to believe that it is in fact its own letter called 'elemenopee' (among other variations). Some have proposed teaching slower versions of the song to avoid this issue.

Lyrics:
A, B, C, D, E, F, G
H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P

Now I know my ABCs;
Next time, won't you sing with me?

Stephanie is my name, music is my game -- welcome to my Merry Musical Museum of Sounds, Songs and Soundfonts! I'm an exciting 30-year-old Korean-American female who is a huge fan of Nostalgic stuff and I am also a musician (with a good musical ear or musical skills) who makes tunes with soundfonts from games and toys, as well as musical mashups and song covers too. I also upload game music (includes LeapFrog LeapPad and My First LeapPad music too) and other songs, with credit to others. I will upload my music, mashups, song covers, rare songs and video game tunes on here when I feel like it. 

My other interests are anime, art, cute things, animated movies and series, and drawing.

Note: Please wait. Sometimes posting things here takes a while. Plus patience is a virtue.
